As a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic, virtually all public schools in the US closed their doors for in-person instruction for at least some period of time in spring 2020, and many remained closed in the 2020-21 school year. Whether schools are open for in-person (versus remote or hybrid) instruction has been a contentious policy issue. Indeed, the ability of students to attend school in person has become a political flashpoint in both Europe and the US. In the US, President Biden has committed to having the majority of K-8 public schools open for in-person instruction by the end of his first 100 days in office (Chalfant 2021).
RALEIGH â A new national study says that it appears safe to reopen schools for in-person instruction in counties with lower rates of COVID-19 hospitalizations.
The study, conducted by the National Center for Research on Education Access and Choice, is the first of its kind to analyze data from all U.S. counties. As a gauge for safely reopening schools, researchers used a threshold of 36 to 44 new hospitalizations per 100,000 people per week.
Under the studyâs rationale, some North Carolina counties â including Wake, Union, Guilford, Brunswick, Davidson, Iredell, Pitt, Randolph, and Rowan â could safely reopen schools for in-person instruction. Mecklenburg County is just over the threshold at 44.15 new COVID-19 hospitalizations per 100,000 population.
